Highland Games
The Highland Games at Amulet Vineyard Beechworth. Sunday 21 August 2011 10.30am-5pm
Professional strongmen compete for the Claymore Sword and title of "Southern Highlander". These feats of strength are rarely seen outside metropolitan areas and it is the only event of its kind in northern Victoria. Another highlight of the day is certainly the massed pipe band parade. The sound of bagpipes echoing through the hills whilst the bands make their way down the sloping vineyard is spectacular. The local police and CFA face off in the "Guns and Hoses" charity tug-of-war, with proceeds going to the Everton CFA. The Blue Ribbon Foundation will also be in attendance, joined by Constable T Bear. A rain, hail or shine event that's fully catered (no BYO), we look forward to welcoming you to the games.
